Ingredients

• 8 pieces Large eggs
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 12 slices Thick-cut bacon
• 3 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 4 medium Russet potatoes
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 4 cups Mixed fresh fruit (e.g., berries, melon, pineapple, grapes)
• 1 tablespoon Honey
• 1 teaspoon Lemon juice

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

Cut the russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with garlic powder, dried rosemary, paprika, a pinch of salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.

Step 3

Spread potatoes into a single layer and roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

Step 4

While the potatoes are in the oven, lay the bacon slices on another baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each slice with a thin layer of maple syrup.

Step 5

Bake the bacon in the oven for 15-20 minutes, or until crispy, turning once halfway through. Remove and set on a paper towel-lined plate to cool slightly.

Step 6

In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.

Step 7

Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-low heat. Add the butter and let it melt. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until the eggs are fluffy and just set. Remove from heat.

Step 8

Prepare the fruit salad by combining your choice of fresh fruits in a large bowl. Drizzle with honey and lemon juice, tossing gently to coat.

Step 9

Serve the scrambled eggs, roasted potatoes, maple-glazed bacon, and mixed fruit salad together on a platter for a festive holiday brunch.
